Hey All,


I've GAS pains.....have to move this one to make room.   
Yamaha TRB-5 II.  I've had her a little over a year.  gently played:  (never gigged out in bars etc. - I play church praise band stuff and this was not my main bass).   Practicaly brand new condition.   When I bought it, all the plastic bits still had the protective film attached.   Includes TKL Hardshell case.    Plays fine, neck is true, recent set up with new DR flatwound strings.   


$650.  + shipping

Well she has to move on

I have to move her.  She's really nice, but I've been playing up the neck more; which is a good thing, but have discovered I want a more narrow fretboard in a 5 wire.   
I have a Stingray 5 on the way.   If a UBP player wants her, I'll throw in the deluxe padded strap with straplocks.   I'll be posting her to craigslist and fleabay by the weekend.   
Somewhere I think I even have the litltle plastic card that came from teh factory that was under the knobs.....and showed which was volume, pan, EQ orientation etc.   I bought it used from Sam Ash but this was on the bass when I bought it.
